Here in Sweden at least, christmas trees are not pines but spruce.

These small ones with lots of branches - probably not worth the work effort unless you are desperate. And you'll get a lot of residue branches. You also want them to dry for a season before you burn them.

Other than that, they burn just like any other log. Maybe a bit less energy per log. Maybe more smokey than some, but smoke should go out the chimney not in the room.

In the US we use firs and spruce as well but often "pine" means some kind of conifer...

Occasionally you might see some white pine sold at Christmas tree lots.

Mostly fir or spruce in the US as well, but those are often informally referred to as "pine"

Our land area consists of like 70% of either of those so I guess that makes it more important for us to tell the difference :)

I'll admit I can't tell a spruce from a fir, but pine trees look so distinctive that I can always spot them.

Granved är ren skit. Förstör skorstenen o pannan, kåda o inge energivärde. Elda björk istället!!!
